FAQ & Changelog
FAQs
1. When will the bugs be fixed?
-- We are trying our best to fix the bugs present and we hope to do so ASAP.
2. How often will you provide updates?
-- I'll try to update this rom as often as possible but I gotta even spend time on studies.
3. Many apps which require Superuser access say that my phone is not rooted.
-- Please download SuperSu from PlayStore and open it and install the binary.
4. Which Gapps to use?
-- YourzGapps - http://d-h.st/Pep
5. Why is the proximity sensor on all the time/My phone wakes up without me pressing any buttons?
-- Its a feature of carbon known as pocket mode. It doesn't take much battery but still if you want you can turn it off by going to Settings->Carbon Fibres->Lock Screen-> Notifications and uncheck pocket mode.
6. How to access developer options?
-- Go to About Phone in settings and tap Build Number 8-10 times.
7. Why is xyz feature of Carbon Fibers not working?
-- Carbon fibers are still being ported to 4.4 so may not work properly.
8. Is HALO present in the ROM?
-- Not for now but its being ported to it
ChangeLog
Code:
Beta#2
-->Added Recents RAM Bar
-->Fixed Carbon Fibers Tile in Quick Panel
-->Other small fixes
-->Removed some unnecessary code
Code:
Beta#1
--> Initial Release
Tips
1. Missing the stock Sony UI? Check out this awesome theme - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thomassafca.theme.sonyuxp.free
2. Getting lots of battery drains because of apps like Facebook? - Go to Settings--->Developer Options and enable Developer Shortcut. After using an app like Facebook, go to the recent apps menu and press and hold on the app in the list and you will see the option for force stop. Note:- Force stopping an app will prevent the app from starting again on it's own unless the user himself starts the app [so you won't receive any notifications but your phone is guaranteed to get deep sleep]
3. Laggy launcher? I'd recommend using Nova. It's much smoother than Launcher3
4. Music Lover? Viper4Android works perfect on this rom - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
Note:- Please install it as a system app so that it does not get killed by the system
5. Working walkman - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48165168&postcount=337
6. Want to play 1080p videos? Please install MX Player. It can play even 1080p vids in H/W mode

I am proud to present to you BeanStalk Builds put together by Scott.Hart.Bti. This is a build composed off of the CM10.1 builds and i have added alot of features on top of it. So you get speed, stability, and ultra customization ability. Many of the additional code additions came from slim ROM and also Derteufels build and have been modified to work with my current setup. A huge thanks to Derteufel and the Slim ROM guys for their work and dedication. Also a big thanks to everyone involved with CM as that is the building stone in this project. Thanks to skyliner33v for the bootanimation and upcoming wallpapers!
I plan on updating this and adding features on a pretty regular basis, so if you happen to like this, keep checking back.

***Please keep in mind that this is the initial release and bugs are to be expected. I am working on this myself and do not have a team that is helping me. Before reporting bugs, please make sure you verify everything on your end and make sure you do a full wipe and format first to make sure it is a legitimate issue. I'm going to say this once and only once... I am doing this for fun. It is my CHOICE to share my work with everyone. If you decide that you do not like my work, good for you.. Move on and flash something else. I will not tolerate ungrateful people in my thread.***
Misc:
If you are coming from another 4.3 ROM, you shouldn't have to worry about the recovery, but if you are coming from a 4.1.2 or 4.2 ROM you will need to be sure you have the lokified CWM recovery or madmack's 2.6.1 lokified TWRP recovery for 4.3 ROMs. If you are on a different version of TWRP your touch controls probably won't work.
Coming from Stock 4.1.2 or 4.2 based Jellybean ROMs
Install lokified CWM from freegee or madmack's updated TWRP
Reboot to recovery
Make a nandroid backup
In recovery: Factory Reset
Install ROM
Install Gapps for 4.3 or 4.4
Reboot
Coming from another 4.3 or higher based ROM
Reboot to recovery
Make a nandroid backup
TWRP - Wipe then Swipe to Factory Reset
CWM - Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache Partition, Advanced/Wipe Dalvik Cache
Install ROM
Install Gapps for 4.3 or 4.4
Reboot
Here are some additional steps I take to make sure I get everything running correctly.
This allows me to correctly install Viper4Android and I have no issues making changes to my system folder. It may not be necessary for everyone but I have found it helpful.
After Rom boots, go through the setup wizard then let it settle for a bit (10 min or so)
Download SuperSU from the Play Store
Open SuperSU and a popup will ask you to update the SU binary. Choose OK
After you get confirmation that it installed correctly, close SuperSU then uninstall it.
Download BusyBox from the Play Store
Open BusyBox make sure it shows Busybox 1.21.1 will be installed to /system/xbin and let it gather information for the installation
Click Install on the bottom left, then Smart Install
Reboot
Busybox can be uninstalled if desired

Enjoy!
Big thanks to kaymmm for letting me take over these builds!
I'm uploading this by request from General. I take no credit for the ROM, I just built it from sources that others contributed.
Just a heads up that Google Play related stuff is still force closing occasionally. But I wanted to leave this ROM here in case anyone is interested in playing with it and helping to get it working mo betta.
If you use the Slim Gapps (4.3 version) you can use the built-in dark theme with Gapps, but the goo.im version won't get darkified.
If you're interested in building this rom, you will probably have to update several of the directories from the CM sources to get rid of the proguard errors. I can't remember all of them right now, but I think Browser, Email, Calendar, and Dialer, plus frameworks/av and frameworks/native. The easiest and quickest way to do this is to cd to the appropriate directory:
Code:
cd packages/apps/Email
Then add the CM repo, fetch, and merge:
Code:
git remote add cm https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_Email.git && git fetch cm && git merge --no-edit cm/cm-10.2
Also, I ran into issues with gcc-4.6 but got successful builds with gcc-4.7.
Downloading now thank you for your work

Kaymmm,
Thanks. I came from the infuse and Scott did wonders for that device.
good job !
but so frustrating to see all these new roms and F240 users waiting in vain for a cool one for our phone
but i will try it like all others roms looks great, the biggest bug for my phone is external sdcard not recognized
EDIT: this look like the best rom over here !!
Great ROM... Only thing wrong is that holo launcher Fc and every few mins the whole phone is in responsive for about 15 sec... Is there anyway to rip the system sounds out and make a cwm zip for them... Great work!!!
Sent from my LG-E980 using xda premium
I was having really frequent force closes or hangs at first but after rebooting and clearing caches they were much less frequent, but still present. I think I have an idea of what's causing it, but my knowledge of how to fix it is lacking.
If you want to extract the sounds, they're all in /system/media/. You can try copying them to your sdcard (internal or ext.) using the same folder structure and they should show up in other ROMs. Or you can put them into a flashable zip by copying the files from the existing rom zip or your phone and editing the updater script appropriately. There are directions on this process all over xda. I'd do it but not near a computer right now.
Thanks when I get home I will try to decompress and see what I find... If the lag gets fixed I will def reflash

Great to see this ROM here hope work can continue on it to get it stable. To those who haven't used it before it's kinda like CM and Slim rolled into one with some bonus customization, and the original developer continues to add things all the time. Thank You Kaymmm much appreciated!!!

I built it for the E980, not sure if it will work on E988 or not...if you're running other CM-based roms on your phone, this should work too.
Getting some lag and it freezes for about 10 sec while texting ...also phone has been rebooting on it own ..and it force closes android tuner but that's no biggie. I will say though it really smooth,fast and .. customization is amazing. Just the messaging and rare reboot issue is the only problem i have ran into....I'm gonna stick with the ROM and keep testing it out
Sent from my LG-E980 using xda premium
Great Rom so far. I've noticed as mentioned previously, some MAJOR lag spikes. Not just in texting, but in other applications as well. Also the occasional Gapps force closes. Which i've wiped the delvik, permissions, everything i could think of. On the current Gapps as well. Great rom minus those.
Is camera and BT working on this rom?

Camera is working. I don't have a BT device to test with, but there were some BT updates to CM, which this ROM depends on, so I wouldn't count on it.
Given the known stability issues in the current build, I would suggest sticking to another ROM until I can get another build together (will be running one tonight).

Hey, thanks a tonne. :good:
Where can i find proper GAPPS for this Build ?
A few noticable things!
Been using this rom for a week now.Rom is smooth and good.Increasing the ram a little bit(700mb) in the next build would be awsome hopefully!!
Battery backup is good,it easily lasts for a day on standby mode and on heavy use it lasts for 4-5 hours i guess(didn't notice much on heavy use).
Now coming to bugs:
1) There is a bug in the camera app,while in video mode after pressing the video record icon,the camera freezes for 7-8 seconds and then starts
recording,but i am able to shoot videos which is a good thing.
2) After using the phone for some time(like making some calls and listening to music) after 30 to 45 min,suddenly sounds stops coming from the speaker(i mean the speaker doesn't work) so i tried to get the sound back many times by pressing vol+ button and by playing songs! But no use,the speaker starts working only until i restart the phone!(Maybe some build.prop error i guess).
3) Sim Card Added,Restart your device error on every reboot which is old bug(not a big issue for me).
4) In Carbon fibers>Device Tunables not working.
5)Some times even after setting network mode to 3g only,the network goes to 2g (E icon) but in network shows as 3g only.
6)Screen starts flickering or keeps flashing on carbon logo(not sure what it is,but a white light kinda thing keeps flashing while booting at carbon logo) and also when i ticked Disable HW Overlays,on every reboot it gets Unchecked or simply doesn't gets saved after reboot.
A Few Requests:
Bro @abcdjdj,it would be helpful if u changed the network settings location from Carbon Fibers>Interface>General>Battery Saver Mode>Normal Network Mode to Mobile Networks.Because at first it was too confusing for me to look for network settings as many of us are used to go to mobile networks to change the preferred network.
Other than these minor bugs,ua rom flies on my ION,i have no issues in playing videos and other apps.Just these are the minor problems with which i'm facing problems...and yeah Thanks for the Rom Bro @abcdjdj!!! TIA!! :laugh: :fingers-crossed:
Thanks a lot buddy for this awesome rom really appreciate your work..:good::good:
I found a bug that video plays on hardware decoding first but after sometime hw decoding doesn't work and it switches to software decoding and it starts lag any help??
And what if I overclock it? Is it gonna harm the device??

You have bricked your phone.
Any ways, Follow this Link. READ carefully and follow the steps provided. It helped me a lot when i bricked my phone.
And be Patient bro . . .:fingers-crossed:
in line call recorder
Inline call recorder or invoice call recorder would be of great use. Unlike 3rd party apps inline call recorder records from phone connection NOT from loudspeaker. Please consider my request.
BTW one of the BEST kitkat ROMs I have used
I have flashed ghost kernel from 4.4 miuiv5 over the carbon ROM and the ram got bumped up to 721 from 618. Still no crashes or bugs due to ghost kernel.:good:

Download the whole miui ROM and extract kernel,boot.IMG,from it and flash it over this ROM.
NO more lag when starting video recording.
No sound bug for me so far(hope you have done system,cache,data mount and format before installing this rom)
For definite 3g signals you add 2g/3g network mode in quick settings and switch to 3g only!!!

How to use the layers theme engine
To use the layers theme engine please follow this guide in the YouTube video, but remember you already have the layers app built in to this rom, so you don't need to worry about joining the community or downloading the beta. See the XDA page below for available themes (you can also go to the Google play store and search "layers themes" - if you install themes from the play store make sure you open the theme after downloading and follow instructions from there)

Are you having problems with Lollipop not going in to deep sleep?
Users have reported these instructions below to work for resolving this issue
Starting from ColorOS 2.0.8 I had problems with the deep sleep!
Solve it the following way:
- Flash Coloros 1.2.7 / reboot / setup wizard (without gapps) / reboot / full wipe / Flash last Cyano 12.1 / reboot / setup wizard (without gapps) / reboot / full wipe / Flash Xenon HD / setup wizard (without gapps) / reboot / wipe cache and Dalvik / Flash Gapps / reboot........... Done !!
No more deep sleep issues
Thanks user carlinho
Personally, before I even connect to the internet at all, or restore any applications, I also go in to settings>privacy and turn privacy guard to *Enabled by default*
If the problem is still not fixed you could try the following method. I have also had device not sleeping issues. I think this is a widespread bug amongst a lot of 5.1 roms. The way I fixed it is by factory wipe, follow installation instructions again, then once booted, go to settings> privacy guard and set on for new installed apps. Then restore/re-install your apps. You can then go in to privacy guard and set your absolutely trusted apps to "allow" . Since I did this I have 4 x the battery life. No shiz!
It also doesn't help that Google OTA updates is causing device to "stay awake" because Google's SystemUpdateService keeps launching commands even if update system is not there. Some people don't experience as much battery drain as others. I am one of the unlucky people as well Follow my instructions below for a fix
1. Go to settings> Privacy> Privacy Guard - Now click on the 3-dot menu button at the top right and select "advanced"
2 Click on Google Play Services > scroll down and turn off "Wake up" and "Keep Awake" options
3. Reboot in to recovery > wipe cache and davlik and reboot
The steps above will help to an extent but I would also recommend doing the following if you are still experiencing battery drain
1. Download My Android Tools from here and open the app and do the following:
2. Click on "Service" tab on the top left and then click on "System" and then scroll down and click on "Google Play services"
3. Click on the full/short button at the top right > now click on the search button and type in "com.google.android.gms.update.SystemUpdateService" and make sure to untick this option
4. Click on the menu bar located at the top left of the screen so we can navigate back to the homescreen of the app >
5. Click on "Broadcast Receiver" tab on the top left and then click on "System" and then scroll down and click on "Google Play services" > now search for "SystemUpdate" and make sure all 3 of the options are unticked (it might already be unticked but it is just to make sure) - Now reboot

Edit: @uppon2 i have been away for a while and also from custom roms. Last rom used was DU 5.0, was flawless. Is music bug issue still around? i think CM still has it but does any of your roms have this or not? has it been fixed in 5.1?

I am unsure about the music bug. This is built from AOSP sources. I ported it from Bacon and used CM device trees to get it up. How can I reproduce the issue?

This ROM is rock stable. Been using it for two days with no issues. Let's hope it stays that way. :thumbup:
This new layer thingy....wow it's freakin brilliant
This rom is absolutely sooo cool - best one on my x9076 yet!
But as always aosp roms rule .... Cm is nice and all but! !!
Plz keep updating uppon2!?
This is my daily driver from now on - we so much need a multiboot kernel?
Booting this aosp vs new cos L would be awesome!
Thanks a million uppon2 - you serious rock the oppo scene
Hope you get the thx you deserve?
Edit: anyone able to get 50mp shots working on this rom?
Compiling a new build. Will be out in a a couple of hours if everything goes to plan
Will see if 50mp works on new build
Uppon2 please read bootmgr answer to me in this thread > http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/themes-apps/port-coloros-camera-cm11s-t3030369/page5
He says if correct string for device is added in cos camera apk, then find7 4k recording will work. .... Hot damn this is one off the last things we need from cos?
Sounds easy a re/decompiling and its working.
50mp shots 4k video and the maxaudio port ...then all is at place in lolipop
Edit:yes yes 50mp shots works flawless
Updated! Check OP

@TeamMex lol look who is in town for this phone. Missed your work brother . And here @yuweng u did fantastic job of bringing aosp to this phone. Caf is always the best. I am going to root my this new phone now .
Is fingerprint supported in this version or not??
Instead of asking why don't you flash it and find out yourself?
but the answer is NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
Just like every other ROM. I'm sure there will be a BIG announcement if fingerprint support ever comes to this phone. At this point I hope it never does.

well old friends are always missed klozz....
what a fantastic ROM! I was on Resurrection Remix, and gave this a try, this is even more fluid and battery back up is much better......I also tried AICP but i couldn't fix the random screen off issue though
I have two questions, if someone can help:
1. How do I get "Screenshot" in Quick tiles? The + button does not have it as an option to add to existing tiles, I often use it and sorely miss it. I tried using Gravity Box but that seems to screw up aesthetics as well as conflict the selection options.
2. How do I uninstall system apps? (Exchange services etc) I cannot seem to find it in the Settings menu anywhere and TB fails to uninstall (they all come back after a reboot!)
All in all, am sticking with this ROM anyway! Best I've used so far, but for these two minor quirks I have
Small bug: Ringtone and Notification volume are always linked, in spite of deselection the option to link
nandakalyan said:
1) volume up+ power triggers screenshot . u don't need to use any app or any option for this .
Else still if u need , just goto power options and add screenshot there.
2) u can try es file explorer to uninstall system apps .
U can ever delete the system app (in ur case exchange services) folders from twrp .
Els try root uninstaller from playstore .
U can separate volume adjustments from sound options .

That is exactly what I said isn't working (notification+ringtone de-linking)

Other ROMs seem to have an inbuilt System app remover, I already removed those using Root explorer anyway, but asking if I missed something which is already in the ROM that I am unable to find.

All the ROMs based on CM carry the same issues/bugs that exist in CM. FP doesn't work in CM, it won't work there as well.
I was having issues with the CM 13.0 build because of connectivity. Mobile data was very bad, speed and availability wise. I tried all the suggestions in the thread but nothing helped. I flashed this ROM last night and it felt just as smooth as the CM 13.0 compared to the horrible performance of the stock ROM (I was running B140 Debloated on KIW-L21). I am now sitting in the train on my commute to work and I have to say: speed and reception of mobile data is awesome!
Thank you so much for working on this! When this is running stable I do not see a reason to switch to another ROM. Great work!
is anyone else having Wi-Fi auto connect/disconnect issues? Each time I have to manually select the Wifi network to connect to Also, the signal strength always seems to be showing one or two bars (in Wi-Fi) even if the router next to the phone!
Well here is the feedback !.... The clock is not visible ! Its white in color and I can't see any text over it !
2nd whenever there is data switching between 3g to 2g networks the phone network disconnect itself. This was not an issue with the stock ROM. (Maybe issue with our sim telephony at cm device trees)
3rd whenever yo go into 4g area ! Phone does not show 4G symbol. Whenever I switch back to 3g it shows h+ icon . I have attached the screen shot in which there is no 4g symbol in which tiles Re down !

As we're getting back into the thread game, keeping up with threads and updating them as per changelogs can be too hectic given our schedule. However, very detailed changelogs always go up on our Google+ page, follow us for constant updates!
For Device specific changelogs, check the second post.
Instructions & requirements
We highly recommend you to follow these instructions very carefully. Users usually tend to skip a few steps and eventually fall in trouble. Are you with me? Good. Let's get this train going.
Just a few things to keep in mind first -
If you're coming from another ROM / Stock, your system data (not internal storage) and cache will have to be wiped. This includes apps, accounts, messages, call logs etc.
There's been some users complaining about different GAPPS variants messing up installs and causing a ton of issues. Upon investigating it seems OpenGapps Mini/Nano work best.
Understand that Paranoid Android is a custom ROM and it might lead to addiction as it's relatively good. We shouldn't be accused of anything just incase your cat starts drinking wine. Things get a little woozy in the Paranoid World.
Some brain might be involved if things go wrong. Not a lot though, as much to solve what's 1+1.
Okay let's get to the main bit -
Once you have all the required files - boot into recovery and wipe the bananas out of your device. Get into the wipe menu and wipe data, system, cache and dalvik cache (basically everything except Internal Storage).
Once wiped, get into the "Install from zip" menu and select the ROM zip. (pa_gemini_6.x...). Once added to the install queue, TWRP will ask you if you want to add more zips into the queue - Click on "add more zips" and select the firmware package.
Swipe the bar on the bottom to flash/install zips. Once both zips are done installing - Reboot into system and set-up your device, after you've let it settle with screen off for about 10 Minutes, do not do anything else! Please let your device settle with screen off for about 10 Minutes after the first boot, otherwise the system wont boot after a reboot!
Once you're done setting up your device - well that's when you're done. One thing though - Make sure you DO NOT INSTALL any other zip in the same queue as the ROM! Meaning, do not flash anything like Gapps, a kernel or a root package while installing the ROM. We recommend you do that AFTER you're done setting up your device.
Important / Useful links

full rom, no delta updates...
Installation is a bit fiddly. Have to follow instructions and give it a time to settle. Then you get an. excellent rom.
Exposed works very well.
Great camera. Take pictures while recording video
Fingerprint works better than any other rom.
Am staying Paranoid .
Thanks dev

Which gapps version you use? I was installing this rom, wait for about 10 minutes and install latest opengapps nano and it can enter homescreen for a while then back to bootanimation again.

Also latest open nano. Did you set up the rom, before flashing gapps?
